Rep. Don Davis, a centrist Democrat who often breaks with his party, endorsed Kamala Harris’ presidential bid on Friday, one day after he joined five other Democrats in condemning her handling of the southern border.
“The stakes of this presidential election are incredibly high, with far-reaching implications,” he said in a statement, adding “at the same time, the administration and Congress must address the concerns of the southern border.”
Additionally, Davis (D-N.C.) took the extra step of endorsing a vice presidential pick for Harris: North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper.
He is a first-term lawmaker representing a competitive seat in northeast North Carolina.
